Reset Maint Required Light

What procedure are you using?

And are you looking at the maint req light or the check engine light?

Hey Brian,

First, as the other poster said, make sure it's the yellow horizontal view of the engine, not a red indicator. On my Civic, the reset combination is: with the car OFF, press and hold the trip odometer reset button in. Start vehicle. Continue to hold the trip odometer button in until the maintenance required lamp goes out... should take less than 10 seconds after the vehicle has started. Let us know if that worked!

Amazing how often this question comes up.

This comes straight out of your Owner's Manual.

Thanks. This is what I have been trying. Nothing happens.

BTW - It is the yelow/orange light that says "Maint Required"

I have been using the turn the key off, press the odo reset button then turn the key to II. No luck.

The light is the yellow/orange one that saya "Maint Required"

Are you pressing and holding the button? While, and after you turn the key to II?

Did you try what it says in your Owner's Manual? Do you still have your Owner's Manual?

That's what the owners manual says. BTW - I still have all my paperwork, manuals, stickers, etc. I'm a pack rat when it come to that stuff...

So you're saying you followed the correct steps precisely and the Maintenance Required light won't go off?
